| 2006 | SEAT BELTS | 2006 MAZDA TRIBUTE: IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT HAS LOCKED INTO PLACE AND DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. ONE OF THE TIMES, DRIVER DROVE TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS TOTALLY DISCONNECTED FROM THE FLOOR BEHIND THE SEAT; SO DRIVER COULD GET OUT. MECHANIC SAID TO NOT BUCKLE AGAIN, BUT IT IS ROUTINE, SO IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NOW WHEN DRIVING, THE BUZZER BUZZES FREQUENTLY TO REMIND TO BUCKLE SEATBELT, THAT CANNOT BE UNBUCKLED. IT IS BUCKLED UP, AND DRIVER IS SITTING ON THE BELT. THIS CAR BELONGS TO A 78 YEAR OLD, WHO WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT IF SHE HAD A WRECK. IT HAS HAPPENED TO MULTIPLE DRIVERS OF HER CAR. THANKS (THE CAR BELONGS TO MY MOTHER, AND I AM CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF ANYONE ELSE WITH THIS MODEL.) *TR |
| 2005 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | THE GAS PEDAL STICKS WHILE DRIVING, IT LOOSENS UP AFTER A FEW MOMENTS, (PUTTING THE ENTIRE FORCE OF MY BODY AGAINST PEDAL WILL NOT FREE IT UP) . THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS, BUT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MUCH MORE OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. ALSO LAST WINTER WHEN IT WAS COLD AT NIGHT AS I PULLED FROM MY PARKING SPOT AT WORK THE ENGINE SEEMED TO REV SUDDENLY AS I PULLED AWAY. THIS WOULD ONLY HAPPEN OCCASIONALLY AND I FIGURED IT WAS DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER BUT I AM NOT SO SURE NOW. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS. THE DEALER CHARGES THEM SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2002-2004 MAZDA TRIBUTE FOR THE ACCELERATOR CABLE RECALL 2704L. IS IT POSSIBLE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL YEAR. *TR |
